Here are some links to library webpages that I think have some great resources!
Notre Dame de Sion Kansas City, MO
This library webpage is in the form of a wiki. The librarian has created many different pages that have helpful resources for students and staff. Here are the things I like best about this page.
1. I really liked the teacher resource page. There were many great links to media, professional development and Web 2.0 tools for teachers to use. Each link had a description and it is very easy for teachers to access and get started!
2. The librarian included a free music download page. This would be great for both students and teachers. Often times we all spend too much time looking for music to enhance our presentations and this makes it available quickly!
3. The subject pathfinders page gives links to resources for every core subject and more. It also provides resources for copyright information and images that students can use for projects.
University High SchoolIllinois
This webpage has a number of great resources for teachers and students. Here are a couple of my favorites.
1. The librarian include a portion of the page called "book bytes". Currently they have a trailer for an upcoming television series on vampires. Here I could see including book trailers for upcoming or newly released books as well.
2. They have included a link to the library's own del.icio.us page to help students get suggestions on books to read and they have also included subscriptions to different resources about literature.
3. They have a great page for teacher resources. It includes subject specific resources including podcasts, wikis and links to other classroom blogs. This would be a great way for teachers to connect with each other and share ideas!
The Big House LibraryCalifornia
This page is for a High School library in California. The website is very well done with easy links and lots of resources. Things I would like to have on my website were:
1. They have a book review wiki link on the site where students and teachers can review a book and post it on the wiki. It can be a written review or a recorded review. I like that students can share their thoughts on books they have read.
2. I liked that the library has a home page and links to resources but also included her own blog there to update patrons on events or share pictures. This is a great way to give it a personal touch and reflect on what has been happening in the library!
3. This librarian included a google calendar link on the page so that students and teachers can keep track of events and find times to come into the library. The google calendar is so easy to use. I would want to include one on my page.
